Flavorful coconut rice and beans is Inspired by Jamaican rice and peas.
(Several commenters suggested this dish too.)
The rice is cooked in coconut milk.

This is one of those I-can’t-wait-to-make-it-again dishes.
Serve it with curry, roasted meats,jerk chickenor all by itself.
The rice is especially good with a little lime juice sprinkled on to serve.

Add the onions and saute for 4 to 5 minutes, until they begin to brown on the edges.
Add the garlic and rice, stir well and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, stirring often.
Add the grated ginger, salt, water, stock and coconut milk and stir well.

Add the kidney beans and sprinkle the thyme over everything.
Bring to a simmer, then turn the heat to low and cover.
Check after 15 minutes.
Once done, remove from heat and cover for 10 minutes.
Fluff with a fork.
Sprinkle with a little lime juice if you want.
Discard the habanero (or eat it, if you dare!)
